One of my favorite parts of Christmas shopping is when it comes time to fill the stockings and these are definitely the best stocking stuffers for 5-year old boys that I could find! This is a really fun age because they’re so excited about the holidays and are also into so many fun things!

Whether your little boy is into building, superheroes, arts and crafts, or dress-up, there are tons of stocking stuffer ideas that make them (and you) really excited.

This is one of my favorite things to shop for because it’s pretty much how you launch your Christmas season. And Christmas for a 2-year old is such a special time because they really start to enjoy things…so it almost feels like their first Christmas!

All of these Advent calendar filler ideas are easy to get, so hopefully this list will make your job easy AND fun.

Good luck with your shopping and Merry Christmas!

From the second I came across the concept of hygge, I was hooked. And since it goes hand-in-hand with holidays, you better believe I’m going to have a hygge Easter this year!

Easter is hands down one of my favorite holidays and it’s perfect for adding hygge. So many critical hygge concepts (family, outdoors, food) are already present in Easter, so hygge-fying it is not only easy, it’s also fun.
